As I look at my two, beautiful children, I can't help but think about how lucky my husband and I are to have them in our lives. I remember the almost nine months that we tried to have a baby. This after several months of trying to decide if we were ready to have kids in the first place. The emotions that you face when trying to get pregnant are quite bipolar, as getting pregnant is not always easy.
It has now been 17 months since the babies came into our lives and we are ready to have another baby (hopefully just one this time). In fact, we've been ready and trying to have another baby for about five months now. Again, I am faced with the same optimism and defeat month after month. This rollercoaster of emotions is often hard to deal with, yet I know that my struggles are not only my own. I have several beautiful friends who have had similar struggles. One has had several miscarriages between the births of her children. Another has learned that she has a blocked fallopian tube and is now contemplating IUI or Invitro after months of testing and other fertility treatments gone wrong. My heart cries for these women, and for myself (I have to admit).
Hopefully the stick will turn pink soon again for us. In the meantime, I continue on this emotional rollercoaster.
You're brave, brave, brave woman!!! We will be ready soon hopefully! But I say you are brave with two little ones and now hopefully soon a third! Good luck!!!
